Popular anchor exits S.A. TV; likable vet in her place

As has grown far too usual in San Antonio TV news, another instance of "now you see 'em, now you don't" has happened at KSAT with no explanation given as to why an anchorwoman left the station.

This time, people are baffled by the disappearance of striking brunette, Concetta Callahan, the former morning weekend newscaster for the ABC affiliate, who also reported weekdays.

"Can you let us know what happened to Concetta Callahan? I really miss seeing her smiling face," Anita Conder, one of the many concerned fans, wrote in an email.

"We invest time in our anchors, learn to love them, and then they are gone with no explanation. I thought she was on vacation, but after several weeks, I looked at the KSAT staff page and she was gone. She wasn't even here two years. Hope she is well and lands in a great place."

"We have no further information other than she is no longer employed by the station," he wrote.

Callahan did write this nostalgic missive to local fans in a Facebook message: "It makes my heart smile knowing the community values my work and I am dearly missed! I cherished every morning I got to wake up with everyone in San Antonio!"

Social media also has been abuzz with her mysterious exit.

Lila Cotton, one of Callahan's fans, even wrote in a Facebook message that she contacted the anchor and received this reply: "She said she was no longer with KSAT and was going to travel some until her next gig. She was very gracious and thanked me for my concern."

The University of Texas at San Antonio graduate began her television career on the Texas/Mexico border in Laredo, where she worked for KGNS-TV as an anchor/reporter. One notable story took Callahan across the border to give viewers a firsthand look at Mexico's escalated violence, reporting on some of the deadliest drug cartels.

In her place these days on KSAT's weekend "Good Morning San Antonio" is Stephanie Serna, a San Antonio native and longtime station staple. She also has received positive feedback.

"Stephanie is poised and polished. Nice to see her anchoring," Bob Costa wrote in a recent email.

"She's currently in an interim role, but we're certainly happy to see her continue to grow," KSAT's Cuccio wrote about Serna.

"We all like her very much also, so we're glad our viewers agree," he added.
